Abstract
Let D be a smooth divisor in a compact complex manifold X and let \(\beta \in (0,1)\). We use the liner theory developed by Donaldson (Essays in Mathematics and Its Applications, Springer, Berlin, pp 49–79, 2012) to show that in any positive co-homology class on X there is a Kähler metric with cone angle \(2\pi \beta \) along D which has bounded Ricci curvature. We use this result together with the Aubin–Yau continuity method to give an alternative proof of a well-known existence theorem for Kähler–Einstein metrics with cone singularities.
